Elliot has featured in 49 encounters for Newcastle following his move from Charlton in 2011.

He has not played for the Magpies in the new campaign after he suffered a serious knee injury while on international duty with the Republic of Ireland in March.

Elliot also faces strong competition for a starting place in Rafa Benitez’s side when he does return from injury after the addition of Matz Sels this summer, alongside former Nottingham Forest number one Karl Darlow.
